Akaka Falls State Park
While in Historic Honomu town a must visit spot is Akaka Falls State Park. This is the second most popular place to visit on the Big Island, after the Volcanoes National Park.

The hike will take about 40 minutes to walk through while you take in the lush green forest. This is a great spot for pictures!
